Auntie Lu's Bakery — San Diego, CA
Photo Cakes in San Diego
Your favorite photos, printed on delicious cake
Turn your favorite photo into a delicious cake! Auntie Lu's Bakery offers high-quality edible image printing on custom cakes. From birthday portraits to graduation photos, company logos to pet pictures, we print crystal-clear images on premium fondant sheets that taste great and look incredible.
How Photo Cakes Work
Simply send us your high-resolution photo and we'll print it using FDA-approved, food-safe edible inks on a thin fondant or frosting sheet. The printed image is placed on top of your cake and blends seamlessly with the frosting. The result is a photo-realistic image that's fully edible and delicious.
Photo Cake Ideas
Our San Diego customers love photo cakes for birthday portraits (especially milestone birthdays), graduation headshots, couple photos for anniversaries, baby photos for first birthdays, pet portraits, sports team logos for watch parties, company logos for corporate events, and vacation memory photos.
Quality & Resolution
We use the latest edible printing technology for vibrant, detailed images. For best results, send us a photo that's at least 1MB in size with good lighting. We can adjust brightness, contrast, and cropping to ensure your image looks perfect on cake. Our printers produce rich, true-to-life colors.
